Up for auction is my 1959 Volkswagen Beetle (Type 1) Relisted due to 3 non paying buyers. This is the last time I will be listing this Volkswagen. I have owned this Volkswagen for over 3 years. I'm the 3rd owner. I have enjoyed this little guy so much, but I have other priorities at this time. This Volkswagen was originally from Virginia and spent his whole life there until being brought to Ohio. I purchased the bug from a Volkswagen collector who bought him and hauled him on a flat bed from Virginia. You can tell that he was always garaged and never exposed to any salt. He is 100% original with the exception of the ash tray which has been misplaced. You would be hard pressed to find another 1959 Volkswagen is this condition! Garage kept! The color is Kalahari beige, I recently had the car buffed/shined and the paint looks good. His body is very solid; no rust holes at all. Super solid! Doors do not sag at all. Everything is tight and as it should be, as told to me by people who bought these little cars brand new in the 1950's and 1960's. The floor pans are solid, no rust and never replaced or patched. See pictures of this area. The paint is original and has some spots where the paint peeled off. See pictures of this area too please. Front bumper was removed when hauled on the flat bed. I have put it back on and they may need adjustment. Have all the over riders and hardware. Original "H" rear apron! Never hit! The interior is in great shape, It's blue with white piping. It's MINT! No issues, no smells, no holes or tears, never smoked in! Headliner is in great condition, door inserts are perfect. Just an all around survivor Volkswagen! He runs, drives and stops as he should. Never wrecked or damaged! Only 101,159 original miles! New tires with less than 250 miles on them. I have just serviced the little guy. The following have been replaced: new original Volkswagen fuel reserve tap under the gas tank, new Bosch starter, new Bosch spark plugs, new Bosch 6V coil and a new steering box. A full tune up was also performed and included new wires, cap, rotor and condenser. Brand new 6V battery. I have a clean and clear title in my name and in hand. The bidding starts at 0.99 and is being offered at NO RESERVE! I want someone to enjoy and drive this Volkswagen. The Volkswagen is located in Lorain, Ohio. Lorain, Ohio is 35 miles west of Cleveland, Ohio. I can help load him on your trailer if need help. If you would like pictures of anything specific please ask. Serious inquiries and bids only please. This Bug is 56 years old, I'm not the original owner, everything is true to the best of my knowledge. I have had issues with the bidders, most want me to wait until they can get the funds together. This will be the last time I list this VW, if he doesn't sell I will be donating him to a local car charity for the tax write off, so bid to win If you want to own this Bug. The windshield was shot by a kid with a bb gun, a new windshield can be purchased for $115.00. The horn stopped working last week. That's an easy fix. Thank You for Looking. Any Questions Please Ask. Thanks!
